Cantina di Solopaca Benevento Aglianico IGP
Cantina di Solopaca / Benevento, Campania, Italy
The Reliable, Unfussy Campanian Table Standard
Ruby-red with youthful purple hints. The nose is honest and straightforward, offering aromas of ripe dark cherries, wild plums, earthy bramble, and a touch of cracked black pepper. Medium-bodied on the palate with approachable, soft tannins, refreshing acidity, and a clean, unpretentious finish.
⭐ (Cleanly made cooperative table wine; straightforward, light on heavy oak, and very gentle on the head if enjoyed responsibly).
Everyday pasta dishes, wood-fired pizza, simple roasted meats, or casual weeknight dinners
